ARKHEFIELD: Sit-Art Initiative

Sit-Art is a collaborative design-learning project at Kelvin Grove State College sponsored by The Myer Centre and Arkhefield and supported by the Asia Pacific Design Library of the State Library of Queensland and Queensland University of Technology.

The Sit-Art ‘chair challenge’ invited senior Design students from Kelvin Grove State College to create customised seating designs for The Myer Centre in Brisbane City. The completed designs are featured in the central atrium of The Myer Centre Food Court.

The wider brief for design investigation is the role of seating and other design elements in the design of successful and sustainable public spaces.
